Larson Electronics 6,000 Watt Generator - Water Cooled Diesel Engine - 50' Megatower™ - 12 LED Fixtures
WCDE-4-50-12X160WSA-LED Mobile Megatower™
DESCRIPTION
The WCDE-4-50-12X160WSA-LED is a high-performance, mobile, towable lighting tower powered by a water-cooled Kubota diesel engine and a 6,000-watt generator. Designed for use in large-scale outdoor operations, this Megatower™ produces 176,676 lumens of light using twelve 160-watt LED lamps. It is built for applications such as construction, emergency response, industrial operations, and large event lighting. The system is capable of running for 60 continuous hours on a 30-gallon diesel tank without needing a refill.
Key Features
- Power Source: Kubota water-cooled diesel engine (1800 RPM) powering a 6,000-watt generator.
- Lighting Capacity: Twelve 160-watt LED lamps producing a combined 176,676 lumens.
- Run Time: Capable of continuous operation for 60 hours without refueling.
- Telescoping Light Mast: Extends up to 50 feet, capable of rotating 360 degrees for maximum coverage.
- Area Coverage: The system can illuminate an area of 4-6 acres.
- Noise Level: Operates at a low noise level of 63 dB at 23 feet.
Durability
- IP69K Rated Construction: Withstands extreme environmental conditions, including rapid temperature changes (-40°C to +80°C).
- Waterproof: Rated to withstand submersion up to three meters and high-pressure washdowns.
- Vibration Resistance: LEDs rated up to 60Grms for resistance to heavy vibrations, ideal for harsh working environments.
- Heat Management: Advanced heat management through pulse width modulation (PWM) to prevent overheating, ensuring 70% lumen maintenance even after 50,000 hours of operation.
Adjustable Lighting
- Mounting Brackets: The LED lamps are equipped with trunnion-style mounting brackets for 360° vertical movement, allowing precise adjustment. The mounting system is designed with shock dampening inserts to protect the light fixtures from damage in harsh conditions.
Controls
- Centralized Control Panel: Includes four circuit breaker switches for individual light control and an hour meter to track operation time.
- Safety Features: Automatic shutdown for low oil pressure and high engine temperature.
- Auxiliary Power: Includes a 120V GFCI duplex receptacle and a 240V twist-lock receptacle for auxiliary power needs.
Telescoping Boom
- Boom Construction: The telescoping boom has five sections, extending up to 50 feet. It is constructed from carbon steel with a powder-coated finish to resist rusting and corrosion.
- Stability: The unit is stabilized by a three-point outrigger system, which allows it to withstand 65 mph winds when fully extended.
- Winch System: Two self-braking winches allow manual control of boom extension and vertical positioning.
Housing & Trailer
- Protective Housing: The operating components are housed in a 14-gauge steel compartment with airflow for cooling. The design reduces noise levels and protects internal components.
- Trailer Mount: Mounted on a two-wheel trailer with a 2,000 lbs leaf spring axle. The trailer uses a 2" ball coupling for easy towing, and the unit can be loaded/unloaded via forklift sleeves.
